    Judge the movie for yourself.

    Bagman has low ratings, but I usually don't let that stop me from watching something that seems interesting. Sometimes the movies are incredible, and sometimes they are worse than the ratings. Horror movies are not ever scary to me, but I enjoy the atmosphere and psychological parts of them. Bagman was not anything very original, but it was still a decent watch. I didn't find the movie hard to follow and I didn't see the parents as terrible like so many other reviewers have said.

    I gave this a 6 rating and would have a 7 if not for the "ending" of the end of the movie. After how the movie turns out, and that was definitely different and I wasn't really expecting that, but it's after what happens that I felt was a little flat. I guess it ended how it should as not to be carried out to be a 3 hour movie, but I kind of wanted to see more. The climax was good though and I felt made it worth seeing the movie through. That's a good thing. Just when you think you know what's going to happen, because again, it wasn't anything with an original plot. That was a really good way to turn the movie into something different.

    I say give it a go. It was a decent movie with a really good ending.

    Generic describes it pretty well

    Bagman is essentially the definition of a generic horror movie. Nearly everything it attempts has been done before, and audiences are tired of these tropes. An evil entity tries to lure a young child away from its parents, who are too clueless to take effective action against it. There are cheap thrills, weak jump scares, foolish characters, and a child who sounds eerily similar to Gage Creed from Pet Sematary (1989).

    Perhaps the most frustrating aspect is the parents' irrational behavior. When your child seems to be in danger and there are multiple break-ins at your home, you would make sure to stay close to your child. However, these parents do a remarkable job of ignoring their kid or keeping a significant distance, allowing the entity to enter the house undisturbed. There's also the typical exposition dump and one of the most generic modern horror plots imaginable.

    Honestly, though, I kind of liked the entity, and I think there was some potential to create a decent horror movie with it as the antagonist. Unfortunately, the film fails to stand out amidst all the subpar horror being released today, making it hard to imagine that many people will enjoy it. While there were a few moments I appreciated, overall, it's far from good. [5.2/10]

    Standard, unoriginal monster movie of the month.

    This is just like all the other films with the same boogeyman premise. This "Pied Piper" uses a bag. That is pretty much all.

    And because of the narrative skipping around the way it does, this is not only boring - it gets really confusing. So they couldn't even copy the formula in a productive way.

    The effects are kinda meh. I guess there was music too. But it was probably some cliched horror music library of tiresomeness.

    Oh and that dreadfully atrocious, terribly deplorable, shamefully abysmal, horrendously annoying, abominably appalling, stratospherically ear-piercing wooden deal that the kid treasures. Yeah, no.

    This movie just wasn't my bag, man.

    like some of this but lots to nitpick

    There is a supernatural being stealing kids and stuffing them in his bag. After a financial setback, Patrick McKee (Sam Claflin) has to go back to work at the family lumberyard. His wife Karina (Antonia Thomas) is supportive but concerned. He senses that someone is in the woods stalking their son Jake.

    There are some interesting ideas here. The villain is pretty scary especially from a kid's point of view. There are also a lot of nits to pick. I mean they are in the lumber business. They could have put up a fence around the house. If they know that someone was on the roof outside their kid's room, they should probably nail shut that window. In fact, they should lock down all the windows and doors. I do like this horror villain but I don't think that he's going to gain much traction.

    Apparently, Leaving the Child Alone Is Just Good Parenting in Horror Movies

    The Bagman had an intriguing premise but left a lot of questions unanswered, especially when it came to the characters' decisions. One of the most perplexing choices was leaving the child alone while all the horror unfolded. It felt illogical, given that the adults were clearly aware of the danger and opted to sleep together for safety. Why would they separate the most vulnerable person? This inconsistency really pulled me out of the experience and made it hard to connect with the characters' survival instincts.

    That said, the movie did have its moments. The atmosphere was chilling, and there were a few genuinely unsettling scenes that kept me on edge. However, it often felt like the pacing was off, with long stretches of buildup that didn't always pay off.

    Despite these issues, I'm actually interested in the sequel. The film has laid down some groundwork that could go in a great direction. If the sequel addresses the characters' decisions better and tightens up the storytelling, it could deliver on the promise that the first film hinted at. There's potential here, and I'm curious to see how it develops.
